People who first recognized Jesus for
Who He was.
Simeon and Anna.
Seniors,
Seasoned saints,
Golden agers.
Whatever you want to call them,
They were ancient, but chosen over
The younger ones to lift Him up,
To proclaim His name.
I'm thrilled He picked the aged
Prayerful pair.
It shows me I'm still useable,
Chooseable too.
Aging doesn't need to hold me back.
In fact, the too short remaining years can
Inspire me to push ahead, to
Prayerfully and wisely spend my time,
To ask, "May I tell you about Jesus,
A special Friend of mine?"
